Hello friends! For my first Paper Rose design team project of 2026, I decided to use their new Heartwood House collection. I made a bunch of Valentine’s Day and Love cards. The majority of cards will be given to the residents at a nearby retirement home. I already have this year’s cards finished, so these will be set aside for either next year or possibly 2027. Yay for being ahead! I can get used to this!
I made 24 cards with the Heartwood House collection.
Here are close up pictures of the cards I made, including sketches and measurements. All my cards are American standard A2 size. For sketches that don’t include measurements, I simply figure the measurements out on my own, for what works for me. Go HERE to see my video explaining how I determine card sketch measurements. All cards are made using Paper Rose Studio’s Heartwood House collection.
FYI – I won’t be linking directly to the sketch sites anymore. Over the years, many have closed their blogs/websites and now the links don’t work. I will continue to include a picture of the sketch and list the source and number.

I absolutely love all your sketches with the card ideas. I’m part of a group that makes and donates cards to our county jail as well as the state penitentiary for the inmates to keep in touch with family. After 17 years we’re always looking for new ideas and Kristie Marcotte is where we usually find lots of terrific ideas that fit the parameters we’re allowed. Thanks so much.
